Alyeska Signing off
Sorry to burst your bubble, but I am NOT leaving for good. I am going on a ski vacation and I will see you loosers when I get back on the 2nd.
Happy holidays.

Have a lovely holiday and a great time skiing. I'm going on a New Year's trip to the Poconos with my friends for the same thing! Although I probably won't ski...but, yeah, anyway--have a great time!!

It's not my place in life to make people happy. Don't talk to me unless you're prepared to watch me slaughter cows you hold sacred. Don't talk to me unless you're prepared to have your basic assumptions challenged. If you want bunnies in light, talk to someone else.

Hmm, Just had a massive heat wave hit my city. ~40 Degrees Centigrade for a few days in a row. And the hotest parts of the year is yet to comeCaptain Kruger wrote:Enjoy the powder, I'm friggin' jealous...(frowning in snowless California).
Mid ~30 Degrees Centigrade, thats just a relatively cool summer day.
The only time I've actually touched snow is when I went to Canada to vist some relatives when I was much younger.
Alyeska, hope you have a good vacation!

Yup, Western Australia. One of the driest continents on Earth (Antarctica is drier )Captain Kruger wrote:

It has cooled down a lot, should be a pleasant +20 degrees for the week(if the weather man isnt wrong )
Dont think Perth (W.A.) experiances dry hot days, they are almost always hot & humid. Evaporative air conditioning is useless, when you really need it (+40 degree days), you can almost wring out your shirt.

Sure we do. In Tucson the ice doesn't break on the Santa Cruz River until the temperature breaks 100F (37.7778C). Still, most people around here would agree that 104 (~40C) is pretty hot.Captain Kruger wrote:ggs wrote:Hmm, Just had a massive heat

That is in degrees Centigrade, the proper temperature measure (Much easier to convert to Kelvin too).

Indeed. So how cold does it get? -30?
